Leo activated his ability, and the stones exploded, swallowing the cockatrice. The creature didn't even get the chance to scream as the explosion consumed it, causing instant death. Leo watched the charred body of the cockatrice fall to the ground and wiped the sweat off his forehead, falling to the ground. The battle had taken a lot out of him, and the debuff he had received from the cockatrice's last attack had made him even weaker. He read the notification flashing in front of him:[You have defeated the cockatrice sub-boss][Level up][Level up][Level up][You have been rewarded with 15 power points, Power Stone (S), and a new skill [Sonic Blast]][Apocalypse Baby taking effect...][Reward has been doubled] “Yes,” Leo exclaimed, balling both fists. He had taken advantage of the battle between the two different creatures and had reaped bountiful rewards. From leveling up, which netted him power points, to power stones, coins, weapons, and even a new skill, Leo was eager to check

Leo's hand stung from the force of the slap delivered to the cockatrice’s beak. He flexed his fingers, wincing slightly. Yeah, maybe he shouldn’t have done that. The creature, with its head turned by the impact, slowly redirected its gaze toward Leo, disbelief etched on its avian features. How dare this human, this mere Rank-E, lay a hand on the mighty cockatrice boss?"YOU...""Shut it!" Leo interrupted, raising his arm. “Just come over here, and let's get this over with. I don't want to waste too much time; I've got a lot of your kind to kill.”The Cockatrice boss, initially taken aback, now seethed with rage. Leo's audacity baffled him. Despite the peculiar strength of Leo's aura, inferior to his own, the human spoke as if he were the apex predator. The Cockatrice boss then gritted its teeth and charged toward Leo, hate burning in its eyes.Leo, nonchalant, plucked a couple of stones from his inventory and tossed them toward the oncoming creature. “Here, have some stones.”The Cock

The whole battlefield erupted with a powerful explosion consuming both cockatrices and goblins alike. Leo covered his ears so he wouldn't get deaf from the earplitting sounds.With his eyes shut, he grinned heartily enjoying the sounds of system notification ringing in his head.As soon as all his bombs had finished exploding, Leo opened his eyes to see the damage he had caused. His mouth shot open, the whole place was like a scene from hell, trees on the ground, leaves caught on fire, body parts of goblins and cockatrices everywhere.The explosion had killed about 80% of the monster below and the remaining were far too injured to be a threat. He turned towards, the cockatrice boss and goblin, and saw they were still alive. But they were still fighting with each other despite the chaos.He noticed the Cockatrice was stealing glances in his direction while defending the attacks from the goblin. Leo figured the cockatrice boss knew he was the source of the explosion but couldn't do a

“Goblin find chicken, chicken far over there, many chicken big and a big one but dangerous.” “Even the scout can talk!” Leo uttered in surprise and held his temples. The absurdity of it all left him dumbfounded. He wondered if it was because the goblins were being human like in some ways, was why they were capable of speech compared to the cockatrice. Suddenly, the boss goblin rose sharply to his feet, its demeanor more serious.“Today we hunt down chicken. And when we kill them and after, we have a feast!” he declared, his words met with enthusiastic cheers from his troops.“You lead the way.” The goblin boss commanded the scout and took its weapon. A crude oversized axe that fits its strength. The scout goblin navigated, and the boss followed, leading the packs towards the cockatrice.Leo decided to flee before he got spotted. The goblins were going to war with the cockatrice, but from the fight he saw earlier, he knew the goblins didn't stand much of a chance. Leo wasn't conce

[Goblin Troop: Rank D] The goblin were dressed in tattered rags, clutching wooden club with trembling arms, only a single one holding a crude dagger. They had fearful expression on their faces as they glance back over their shoulder. In a few seconds Leo found out what it was that was chasing them. A scorpion like tail shot out from the shrub impaling the slowest goblin in the group. The creature effortlessly lifted the lifeless corpse and hurled it towards its companions ahead, causing them to tumble to the forest floor in disarray. The cockatrice stepped out, and close the distance with the goblin. The green creatures stood and grip their weapons with trembling hands, showing their backs was suicide, they had no other option but to fight. Leo watching the show, took out a piece of meat from his inventory and began to eat. It just felt like the right thing to do at the moment. The goblins, driven by a primal instinct to survive, let out a collective battle cry and lunged at t

Leo's anticipation bubbled as he clutched the upgrade stone in his hand. He couldn't wait to find out it's effect, so he hurriedly used it.He had expected it to stone crack like the power stone, but instead, a simple notification materialized before him.[Would you like to use the stone on Exploding Touch?]“Hmm...Yes,” Leo mumbled awkwardly, embarrassed he had tried to break it. As if responding to his consent, the upgrade stone in his hand disintegrated into a radiant burst of light.[Exploding Touch is now upgrading][Upgrade Successful][Exploding Touch is now Rank D]Leo didn't check it's effect though, he swiftly took out the second upgrade stone and used it as well.[Exploding Touch is now Rank C]Once it was done, Leo then scrolled down to his ability section to see what kind of effect his ability got for jumping two ranks.Not surprising the changes were remarkable. The countdown had been reduced to 20 seconds and the cost of mana had diminished to 3. Along with it came per
